Duarte Nass, Carla; Rebolledo, Katherina; Valenzuela, Tamara; Kopp, Matías; Jeison, David; Rivas, Mariella; Azócar Ulloa, Laura; Torres Aravena, Álvaro; Ciudad, Gustavo (2020-02-15)

Copper contamination in watercourses is a recent issue in countries where mining operations are prevalent. In this study, the application of copper precipitation through microbe-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) ...
Can microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) through a ureolytic pathway be successfully applied for removing heavy metals from wastewaters?

Torres Aravena, Álvaro Esteban; Duarte Nass, Carla; Azócar Ulloa, Laura; Mella Herrera, Rodrigo; Rivas, Mariella; Jeison, David (2018-11)

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) through a ureolytic pathway is a process that promotes calcite precipitation as a result of the urease enzymatic activity of several microorganisms. It has been studied for ...
